you are wrong, dude~~~~~

UEC is neither equivalent to STPM nor Alevel
UEC only equivalent with Australia year 12 or Taiwan pre-U examination

ppl "misequal" UEC with STPM or Alevel because
1. UEC is one of the pre-U program
2. UEC Maths1 is equivalent with STPM(the only subject that i think is really equivalent)

i disagree UEC is equivalent to STPM/Alvl
1. the full mark all subject paper only 100marks(1 point 1 mark) while Alvl/Aus paper normally hv at least 250 marks. Can u imagine how little the questions of UEC cover the entire UEC syllabus.
2. since UEC exam cannot cover the entire syllabus, student only require to do the selected question only, like 6 out of 12. In other way, u CAN skip some of the difficult topic during ur final exam
3. area of cover is not as large as STPM/Alvl, u will notice when u compare their test book
4. UEC dont hv practical tests or experimental skill questions(cant blame them also, no money mah). This is the biggest weaknesses
5. YUP, i really admit UEC maths exam tough in calculation, logical thinking, tough calculus, tough trigo....... and almost all is tough pure maths lvl. SO, all are calculation, there dont hv any idea in application. Like, wat is the purpose of matric? wat is the purpose of gausion effect?
6. YUP, UEC phys and chems not bad too, but the problem still same, most of the marks of UEC exam is to calculate V=IR, pascal........ still calculation... =.=
where is the daily application concept...
and where is the extended essay
7. Some of the Aus Uni recognize UEC because they want u to come to their country and pay OZ tuition fee to them
Singapore recognize UEC because they want to suck all malaysia talented ppl to their country
Taiwan and China? same laaa


but, UEC definitely can beat matrikulasi malaysia
for STPM or Alvl, stop dreamming la
